2026 Australia Cup final rounds thread

CCM's academy has always produced well trained young players for years as we know - one of their good attributes.
I'm sure they will turn up with a competitive squad.

are A-League clubs back at training?

Brisbane Roar are meant to officially start 1 July from the little I can find.

Doesn't give much time to form bonds and cohesion - especially as we have gone through a lot of player changes involving most of our best players leaving.

To some extent we are lucky that Sydney Olympic are doing poorly this season - but there is still so much advantage in being season forged and match fit.

cant speak for other clubs, but the majority of AU's squad will start pre season in the first week of july, in preparation for the asian champions league playoff match. The players have individual tailored plans in the off season though

Yeh even Adelaide Greeks will 100% be supporting United. I think when we play teams from the other states the Greeks get behind us. No city has done a better job than Adelaide when it comes to selling the A league as the way forward.

Don't know about that I know of 2 lads that even came to Auckland to watch us play from Adelaide... Expecting an Adelaide Hellas banner at Lakeside for this one.

Well, get off your collective arses and attend the match and show all of Australia, that you really are a massive club. Nothing less than 7,000 will suffice. IMHO.

If the weather holds it may come close... Plenty of history towards Adelaide here... Only Melb Victory would have drawn a bigger response.

If they do I can't see SMFC getting anywhere near them.

Anything can happen in the cup

AU will treat them with respect & rightly so as there’s multiple players in souths squad that have had a league experience whether through an academy or first team as well as a couple of players that should have played the sport professionally in this country but didn’t

Lopez, Jankovic, Pasquali, bonada, coveny, swibel, mikkola

Not sure how you can praise a chetnik club and degrade a supposed ustase club in the same sentence

Im happy to play this game with you or anyone.

Let’s look at the 2 clubs in question, how many complaints within the last 10 years have each of these clubs had in their respective federations (FSA & FNSW) in relation to I don’t know …… abuse (including racial) of opposition players/fans, banners, chants, spectator violence etc etc SU have made world wide news for it, not even a murmer of news from FKB

If last 10 years is too long a time for you, why don’t we say last 5 years?

Or maybe we can look at how multi-cultural each club is, in terms of say non anglo saxan players?

Let’s pick the fastest growing demographic for football players in this country (african) How many players with African heritage play for each club? (ill include junior teams, just to give SU a chance) – remember NSW has almost 5x more African people living there than SA

Now that I think of it, it’s a bit of silly argument really, isn’t it?

While both clubs have origins from the Balkans, One of the 2 clubs is borderline the most hated football club in this country (and that’s because of the things I mentioned above) while the other is extremely well behaved and does nothing noteworthy in terms of controversies (that may change when though when north sunshine come over)

Still doesn't change their DNA of the club, Chetniks.

As for us, we've been hated since the NSL days, nothing new.

As the fans say, No-one Likes Us, We dont care.
